DANIEL E. CARR
v.
NEW BEDFORD DISTRICT COURT; TAUNTON DISTRICT COURT; and
BRISTOL COUNTY JUVENILE COURTS CLERKS,
ORDER
February 7, 2024
STEARNS, D.J.
On January 4, 2024, Plaintiff was granted leave to proceed in forma
pauperis and was ordered to file an amended complaint that sets forth a
basis for this court’s jurisdiction as well as a plausible claim upon which relief
may be granted. Dkt. No. 7. The Order stated that failure to comply by
February 2, 2024, will result in dismissal of this action. To date, Plaintiff has
not responded to the court’s Order and has not filed an amended complaint.
It is a long-established principle that this court has the authority to dismiss
an action sua sponte for a party’s failure to prosecute his action and his
failure to follow the court's orders.
Accordingly, for the failure to comply with the January 4, 2024 Order,
Dkt. No. 7, this action is hereby dismissed.
SO ORDERED.
/s/ Richard G. Stearns
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
